Title: Irish dance dresses (gallery)
Post by: Betty on March 08, 2014, 03:28:49 AM
With St. Patrick's day coming up soon, I thought it would be cool to check out some pretty Irish dancing dresses.

I noticed a recent trend where some of these types of dresses are getting shorter, some of the skirts are more flared, a little frillier, & are turning up in a much wider variety of colors. I've even noticed petticoats under a few of them. I'm sure a few Irish dance purists are disappointed with the modern changes, but it's a welcome sight to most of us sissies.

There aren't many modern girl fashion changes that please us, but this is one of the few changes for the better that I've seen since the new Japanese Lolita/Brolita, & Kodona trends.

With the big, curly hair, it looks like a lot of fun.

Enjoy!

Nice choice for another gallery Betty. I love the old Irish dance dresses. The way they flip and bounce as the girls jig and tap. I agree with you, the traditional dress didn't have petticoats, just a stiff under skirt, but I too like the newer trends, flashes of those frilly petticoats, ahhh ....

Better be NOT taking "UPSKIRT" photos of these lassies in Massachusetts - New law.
But these groups are really something with their colorful costumes.
Remember the "River Dance" show I went to a few years ago and marvel at the
the dance moves - not so much the costume wear.
Thanks Betty for this gallery display !

LOL. Cool panties, even if they're missing lots of ruffles.

Since you posted all of these terrific dance pics Betty, I've been reading up on Irish dance costumes.  In the jargon of Irish dance the bloomers girls wear are called "kick pants."

These girls all seem to be wearing petticoats under their Irish dance dresses.  One could imagine that if a girl wants to wear a petticoat then she may also want to add a cute pair of ruffled rhumba panties to the outfit.

It was fun to watch all the girls Irish dancing in real pretty dresses, & big curly hair today & yesterday. It got me wondering how much some of those prettiest dresses would cost, so I searched online for them.

OUCH!!! $500 to over $1,000 for the real pretty ones... USED!

Wow. Hard to believe another year has already passed by. St. Pat's local parade is this coming Sunday, even though the holiday is actually on the following Tuesday. All the snow & ice won't be melted by then, but we can hope it's above 20F outside so the girls don't freeze wearing their pretty Irish outfits in the parade.

Time sure flies by when you get older. It's getting to be I'm afraid to fall asleep because I'll wake up & it will suddenly be next year or I'll be dead. No male in my family has ever lived past 65. No Female in my family has ever lived past 71. It's genetics. The non-smoking non-drinking people survived no longer than the ones who didn't live a healthy life. I turn 60 in June. At that age I will have survived longer than more than half the males in my family did. My father died of his first heart attack at 55 just about an hour after just shoveling a couple inches of snow off his front & back step. Sadly my mom & dad were separated & all the kids had grown up. So he died alone in his home the day before Thanksgiving. We didn't know there was something wrong until he didn't show up for Thanksgiving dinner. He was a healthy fit man.

My oldest brother turns 66 in less than a year. If he makes it, he will break the family record for the oldest male ever in our family. My second oldest brother is also still alive. He just finished his 3rd round of chemotherapy, & is once again cancer-free for now. The 2 brothers between him & me are both gone. My baby sister just 3 years younger than me is having leg problems, arthritis, & all sorts of aches & pains, but nothing life-threatening. She's the one who always behaved herself & took good care of herself, so it's odd that she has so many problems now. She was no dummy, she had the highest IQ in the family & in school. I was the second highest in the family, & about the 3rd highest in school.

She will be attending the parade because it goes right by her church on Sunday.

A friend's mom died at 98 y/o. She smoked 2 packs a day all of her adult life, & drank a pint of vodka a day since she was 40 when her rich husband died. But everybody in that family lives to their 90s, so it's genetics. She lived in her own home un-assisted until she died in her sleep one night, except her kids would drive her out for groceries & shopping. Go figure...

Who knows, maybe medical science will have advanced enough for us all to live to be 100 if we can all just survive just a few years more & can afford the treatment.

WOW, I can't believe that St. Patricks Day is coming soon either. Thanks for that pre St. Patty's show, the pics are great. So many wonderful dresses. My family is Irish on my mothers side and my grandfather was one of those willy little Irish men who looked like a Leprechaun. One of the few photo's I have of him is in an old top hat with a huge bottle of Irish whiskey under his arm. It was taken in the early forties at a St. Patties Day parade in Manchester, England. he died before I was born at the age of 61. Most of my mothers sisters have lived until their 80's and my mother was 90 when she died in 2013. Her oldest sister is still going at 93 and living on her own in England. She and my mother both smoked like crazy, at least two packs a day and my aunt may reach 94 this year if all goes well. I hope I inherit those genes although with my arthritis advancing rapidly now my quality of life may be a lot harder to deal with.
Thanks for the Irish dance gallery Betty, it is always wonderful to see these beautiful dresses and dream of wearing them ourselves.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, Friday!

http://unclegadget.com/media/Stpats12310_n-1.mp4

Our town has 2 parades. One for traditional old school conservative old men on Friday. That one doesn't get mentioned much. It's held in the old original Irish neighborhood of the town, but is now mostly inhabited by hoodlums & minorities in modern times. They don't allow gays or trans in that parade.

The big, city & public sponsored popular parade is on Sunday. That one starts downtown & ends in my area in the Allentown Arts district about 7 short blocks from my house. That one allows everybody.

I read it might hit the mid 30s F for the weekend, but that's probably not warm enough to melt all this snow we just got. We got about 12 inches around my house since last night, with more to come. In some surrounding suburbs they had 2-3 feet of snow.

So as usual, all the kids in their short solo dresses & all the drag queens in their skimpy outfits will be freezing.

Hard to believe it was almost 60F a little over a week ago, & the first day of spring is Monday -- Which brings another big day. I've been saying Betty's is almost 23 years old for a few months now. On the first day of spring, Betty's is officially 23 years old.

Originally from our usenet newsgroup (under a newsgroup/usenet name) for gays & crossdressers started in 1981, the sissies & I from there moved to "Betty's Sissyboys" on the new fangled internet. It took about a week to put together, & test on a forum "service", but was publically available to everyone on the first day of spring, 1994.

About a month later, we started the story board, as our main board was becoming cluttered & overloaded with stories.

We don't have one near enough to me so I will watch Toronto's on TV. I do love the Irish dancers though. I also like the Scottish Highland games in summer and try to get to at least one. Part of my family is Scottish and there is Irish on my mothers side. Funny though as she once tried to enroll me is Highland Dance after seeing me in a Kilt.
